>Advice for new runners
- Build up speed and mileage SLOOOOWLY (start with 15 minutes, increase mileage 10% per week)
- It will feel like you're going slow, you are; don't worry about setting good times for a couple months
- If you start to feel pain anywhere, stop and rest
- Don't try to copy what pros are doing. Do what feels natural
- Once you can comfortably roon 6 miles/10km, start thinking about a goal in terms of race distance and time, and look for a training plan for that goal (see below for suggested plans)

99% of people that are determined to run everyday won't have the discipline to run slow and short enough on easy days to not get injured or chronically overstrained such that they don't make very good progress.
You may be technically correct but you are practically wrong.

This is my current routine, done it for 1 week so far and it seems ok. Should I move around which days I run? Monday-Friday is a stretch where every day I am either hitting legs at the gym or running.

Mon: Leg day
Tues: Upper and easy 5K
Wed: Easy 5K
Thurs: Leg day
Fri: Upper and long run (10K-15K depending upon how I feel)
Saturday: rest
Sunday: rest

>>74116237
The codependency problem is something that has to be figured out and dealt with in the head of whoever has it worse. If your girlfriend is the type that wants to go everywhere with you, even when you're going out with your own friends, then she has to work on that, not you. If you've ever been in a fight over something like not sharing information about your every step in life, you need to sit her down and figure out how you can both be together but still live individual lives. Everyone needs privacy, and trust can't come from never leaving each other's sight. It's not easy, and not everyone is willing to change their core feelings, so good luck.
>>74116347
How long were you with the ex? In my experience it takes the same amount of time to truly get over them. If you were with her for two years, it'll take two years to fully forget.
advice: Don't compare the two girls, and figure out early if your current gf is someone you can live with forever, and make a decision on it. Time is precious, don't waste hers or yours because you want sex and comfort in the short term.

Hi /fit/! I will attend an obstacle course event on Saturday but I haven't exercised in quite a while. How do I get in as good a shape as possible for it in this short span of time? Should I focus on cardio and running?

I don't know what deloading is, but if I need to do it, could it be that I was just working out too often in the first place and that I wouldn't need to deload if I just did less? Why settle for an inefficient routine?

>start working out only once a week max.
Try starting out with MaxOT training. One to two muscle groups per day with at least 6 days between the same muscle group. 6-8 sets max per muscle group, use only exercises you can go heavy with and use a weight heavy enough to reach failure within 4-6 reps.

coming from someone from a flyover that moved to california it is unironically much easier to succeed in a flyover

california is much easier to fail but if you're on a roll there are many more doors to opportunities. I can't imagine having near-perfect sat's and grades only to have to go to some lower-tier cal school because I'm white or asian.

don't listen to anyone who tells you otherwise, you need to be actively chasing as much tail as you can while you are in college. Get fit, be hypersocial, don't give a fuck. Trust me, life gets much more boring. Not impossible, but its not like you can just go to the local watering hole and walk home a new bird every single night like you could in school. you only get one shot at time where you are given the keys to so many nubile women in your life.
